Haiku time! AUs for this chapter.


An accident, that

is what they told me last night.

No-one is to blame.


No-one to arrest.

No criminal to chase down.

No end to my grief.


He will not return,

like the way I had once done.

Once more I'm alone.


If I had been there...

Such thoughts just cause me more pain

because I don't know.


How could he survive

so many other dangers

and yet die from this?


An automation.

I'm a brain without a heart.

I know it's a lie.


Watson, why is it

I never know your value

until you're away?
